At this moment, Yuan Qing, who had heard the commotion, also woke up from his recovery state. After which, he looked at Xiao Yan standing by the side and stood up with a face full of gratitude. He cupped his hands together and bowed respectfully to Xiao Yan. He said, "Thank you for saving my life. Yuan Qing is extremely grateful to you."
Yuan Qing was naturally able to guess that Xiao Yan was definitely hiding nearby earlier. However, it was Xiao Yan who had saved him. Yuan Qing naturally could not say anything. Hence, he opened his mouth and asked, "May I know your name?" Yuan Qing had yet to finish speaking when he suddenly felt that such a direct question was not too appropriate. Hence, he quickly followed up with a somewhat flattering tone, "The old me believes that I know quite a number of members of large clans on this continent. However, seeing that you have reached such a level at such a young age, I am really a little curious as to which faction you belong to. Hence, I hope that you will forgive me for being presumptuous."
Xiao Yan smiled and replied to Yuan Qing's thanks. When he heard Yuan Qing's question, he smiled and said, "Ke ke, old brother's words are a little funny. Honestly speaking, I am Xiao Yan. I have just arrived at this place when I saw that there was a Dou Qi fluctuation in this place. Hence, I came here out of curiosity. Earlier, I saw that this fellow who was neither human nor ghost wanted to kill old brother. Hence, I attacked and forced him back. This was merely something I did in passing. It is nothing."
These words were nothing in Yuan Qing's ears. After all, the two of them had just met. It was already not bad that Xiao Yan did not take advantage of the other. Hence, the two of them merely exchanged a few flattering words with each other. However, when Xiao Yan told Yuan Qing his name, it was also heard by the Old Flame Demon Ghost who had just come out from the rock pile.
Immediately, the eyes of the Old Flame Demon Ghost widened. His face was shocked as he looked at Xiao Yan. He repeatedly panted from his mouth and nose. His scarlet eyes revealed a greed and bloodthirstiness.
The Old Flame Demon Ghost stared at Xiao Yan with wide, scarlet eyes, fearing that Xiao Yan would run away. With a bloodthirsty voice, it called out loudly, "Xiao Yan? You said you were Xiao Yan, right? Jie Jie Jie Jie! You're finally here. You really made me wait for a long time! Kekekeke! "
"Waiting for me? I don't think I have anything to do with you? "
Xiao Yan frowned after hearing these words. For some unknown reason, he felt as though he had stepped into a huge trap the moment he uttered those words. A faint feeling of danger surged from deep within his heart. Moreover, for some unknown reason, his heart actually recalled Hun Tiandi, whose soul had already been destroyed. This caused Xiao Yan to feel quite strange. It was as though the path in front of him had already been planned by someone. This caused Xiao Yan's gaze to automatically become even colder as he looked at the Old Flame Demon Ghost.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Xiao Yan, go and die!"
The Old Flame Demon Ghost's body moved. He instantly flashed to Xiao Yan's left side. His hand suddenly struck towards Xiao Yan's head. Xiao Yan also threw a punch with his right hand and met the Old Flame Demon Ghost's attack head-on.
"Bang."
Xiao Yan and the Old Flame Demon Ghost's fist collided. Waves of churning air waves spread from their palms. Traces of spatial crack lines also appeared in the empty space. The ground under their feet also cracked an inch at a time. A spider web like crack line that was a couple of feet in size spread. Even the tall mountain by the side shook a little.
Xiao Yan and the Old Flame Demon Ghost's fist separated upon contact. Xiao Yan continued to stand in the same spot. The ground under his feet had already turned into a thick layer of dust. His feet would sink deeply into the ground when he stepped on it. Hence, Xiao Yan could only stand in the empty space. The Old Flame Demon Ghost, who had collided with Xiao Yan, was forced back several hundred steps before forcefully coming to a stop. His face was grave as he looked at Xiao Yan, who was standing in the empty space. He had been suppressed from the beginning to the end in the previous attack. It did seem that he had indeed attacked first and had taken the initiative. However, only when he felt the strength of Xiao Yan's fist did he understand what it meant to take the initiative. Under Xiao Yan's absolute strength, even if he and Yuan Qing joined hands, they might not be able to deal with him.
The Old Flame Demon Ghost thought for a while. Finally, he appeared to have made a great decision as his mouth emitted an explosive roar, "Mysterious Underworld Soul Devouring Palm!"
The shriveled body of the Old Flame Demon Ghost suddenly moved. His body flashed and appeared high in the sky. Both of his hands swiftly formed some seals with lightning-like speed. Following waves of energy ripples that were emitted, one could see the black-colored fog around the Old Flame Demon Ghost's body, which had already mostly disappeared from the fight, once again rose. It spread around the Old Flame Demon Ghost's body, forming a layer of thick protective barrier that completely protected the Old Flame Demon Ghost within it.
However, this was not the end. The seals in the Old Flame Demon Ghost's hands continued to change. However, the speed of the changes between his fingers this time around was much, much faster compared to before. However, the Old Flame Demon Ghost had used some unknown method to instantly raise his speed. One could tell just how high the price was just by looking at his repeatedly trembling body. When Xiao Yan sensed the Dou Qi ripple that was faintly being emitted from the seals, his entire expression instantly became solemn. Clearly, this was an extremely powerful Dou Skill.
Unfortunately, although the distance between Xiao Yan and the Old Flame Demon Ghost was not considered far, with the speed of the Old Flame Demon Ghost, it was likely that the other party would have already prepared a feast and was waiting for him by the time he charged over.
The Old Flame Demon Ghost looked at the Dou Skill that was about to succeed. The corner of his mouth carried a cruel and bloodthirsty smile. The next moment, his body suddenly charged explosively toward Xiao Yan and Yuan Qing.
Xiao Yan watched the Old Flame Demon Ghost approaching. The solemn expression on his face suddenly disappeared. Replacing it was actually a worry and worry. Xiao Yan turned his head and glanced at the ashen-faced Yuan Qing by the side. His body moved and the two of them disappeared from the spot. They appeared a hundred feet away and set up a Dou Qi barrier in front of them.
Yuan Qing sized up Xiao Yan, who was wearing snow-white clothes, somewhat strangely. His heart was filled with questions. Was there any difference between where he was and where he was earlier?
The next moment.
"Bang!"
The Old Flame Demon Ghost, who was less than ten feet away from Xiao Yan, paused in the air. The repeatedly changing seals in his hands suddenly became chaotic. In an instant, an extremely wild and violent energy storm that contained some Spiritual Strength suddenly struck the Dou Qi light barrier that Xiao Yan had set up. The light barrier trembled repeatedly and emitted waves of buzzing sounds. However, just as Xiao Yan was about to remove the Dou Qi light barrier to check the situation outside, an accident suddenly occurred.
A heart-piercing pain that caused Xiao Yan to have a splitting headache was emitted from deep within his Spiritual Essence. The Huo Yi that Xiao Yan had originally kept into his body had also appeared from within Xiao Yan's body at this moment. The two of them hugged their heads and cried out.
However, Xiao Yan was at the very least an expert whose Spiritual Strength had entered the Di State. He was also an alchemist. This little bit of pain was quickly eliminated by Xiao Yan using his powerful Spiritual Strength after he reacted.
Xiao Yan looked at the Huo Yi and Yuan Qing who were repeatedly crying out in pain on the ground. He frowned and suddenly waved his sleeve. A majestic Spiritual Strength struck the two of them. The two of them finally gradually recovered. Before Yuan Qing had completely recovered, Xiao Yan had once again kept the Huo Yi into his body. After all, the Huo Yi was a spirit that was born from nature. If others were to find out about it, it would unavoidably lead to trouble.
However, when Yuan Qing recovered, Xiao Yan was greatly shocked. At this moment, Yuan Qing, who had awakened, had an illusory feeling all over his body. If it were not for Xiao Yan's powerful Spiritual Strength, he would have mistaken him for Yuan Qing's Incarnation.
Xiao Yan's face was stunned as he looked at Yuan Qing, who appeared to have his soul out of his body. He naturally knew that this was definitely not an out-of-body experience. This was because there was no such thing as an out-of-body experience for a cultivator. If one insisted that it existed, it could only be the Spiritual Strength that a cultivator emitted to understand the situation around them. The current situation of Yuan Qing was either like the incarnation of half of the 'Nine Transformation Body Skill' or a situation where the soul of some powerful cultivators had an out-of-body experience when their physical body was dead but their soul essence was still intact. Xiao Yan stared at Yuan Qing. Just when he wanted to ask something, he saw Yuan Qing take out a jade bottle from his Spatial Ring in a hurry. With a single movement, he vanished into the jade bottle.
Xiao Yan stared blankly at everything from beginning to end. Only when Yuan Qing vanished from sight and only left behind a jade bottle did he blink a few times. The jade bottle actually flew towards Xiao Yan of its own accord, landing in his hand in the end. Afterwards, a weak voice rang out from the bottle. Yuan Qing said, "Xiao Yan, I hope you can temporarily store my Spiritual Strength in your Spatial Ring for safekeeping. Thank you." Before Xiao Yan could reply, the voice vanished once again. Yuan Qing's Spiritual Strength had temporarily fallen into a deep slumber.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yan! He opened his eyes and stared for a long time. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he could only helplessly sigh. He put the jade bottle into his bosom and ignored it. Immediately, he turned his head to look at the black figure lying in the ruins.
"Bang."
The Old Flame Demon Ghost's body once again appeared amidst the sound of rocks shattering. He had just appeared when he spat out a couple of mouthfuls of fresh blood. His entire body appeared to be on the verge of collapse, as though he could die at any moment.
The Old Flame Demon Ghost's scarlet eyes were filled with a vicious expression as he stared at the black flame human figure lying on the ground without moving thirty feet away from Xiao Yan. This person was Hei Yan, who had arrived earlier than Xiao Yan. It was this fellow's sudden appearance earlier that caused the Old Flame Demon Ghost to fail in using the Dou Technique, causing it to suffer a backlash from the Dou Technique and be seriously injured.
Currently, Xiao Yan was fine, but the Old Flame Demon Ghost was seriously injured and could no longer fight. It was basically impossible for him to capture Xiao Yan alive and bring him back to exchange for a reward. Therefore, he could only send the news of Xiao Yan's arrival to the Ghost Slaughter Sect and see if he could exchange it for something useful.
Thinking in this manner in his heart, the Old Flame Demon Ghost took advantage of the time when Xiao Yan was checking on Hei Yan's injuries to quickly flee from this place with a heart filled with vicious hatred.
